I've had this sore wound on my back for over 3 years that just won't heal. My homeo doctor recommended minor surgery to remove it, but I'm wondering if there are other treatment options without going under the knife. My blood sugar is around 300 - does that affect the healing? If surgery is really the only way, which specialist should I see for this?

I'm really worried about my mom's health. She's been dealing with diabetic hyperglycemia for about 15 years now, and things seem to have gotten more complicated. Just recently, she had pus in her left kidney because of a urinary infection related to her diabetes. I'm really anxious about whether the treatment she's getting is the right fit for her. What should we be looking out for, and is there anything else we should consider?

I've been on progesterone from day 21 after my IUI, and I'm having belly cramps, so my doc gave me Drotin for the pain. I don't feel any pregnancy symptoms yet like discharge or sore breasts. Is this normal? When do pregnancy symptoms usually start? How can I tell if the IUI was successful?
It is normal not to experience pregnancy symptoms immediately after an IUI procedure. Pregnancy symptoms typically start appearing around 4-6 weeks after conception. To know if your IUI was successful, you will need to wait for a missed period and then take a pregnancy test. If the test is positive, it indicates a successful IUI. In the meantime, continue with your progesterone support as prescribed.
